2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing (北京奧運會)

Originally posted on xanga.

Since 2001 when I found out that Beijing won the bid for the 2008 Summer Olympics, I wanted to go. Unfortunately, life didn't align and I will have to watch it from the states.

The past Olympics were always great.

I think the first Olympics I can recall was the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. I was actually here in LA, but I didn't go to any of the events. Only watched it from the TV.

This summer, I plan on tuning in to the following events:
Basketball
Gymnastics
Swimming
Diving
Tennis
Table Tennis
Volleyball
Beach Volleyball

I think there are more, but Yahoo! sports only has a limited listing.
